Sound and presets are really nice as always but the preset browser is a little laggy yet with 1.1 version. Hope they will fix it soon.

You mean it got slower than Version 1?

I do wish GForce would focus on more regular updates and bugfixes for their products. I assume they use contractors for coding most of their plugins. Took more than a year for them to fix the stereo-bug in VSM4.
MAP has a lot of potential, but the UI is too inconsistent and quirky, and there are a myriad of strange bugs and design decisions like how LFOs routed to global parameters will retrigger with note played even if they're set to free-running and no keytrigger.
They also need to improve the overall sound quality. This thing sounds harsh like old VST synths. Reminds me of Massive. No anti-aliasing and the bass and treble get choked really easily. Aalto, which is even more true to Buchla, still sounds incredible, with so much detail and depth, and that synth is 15 years old.

It's funny b/c I love Halogen, their first original non emu synth (and every other synth they've ever made). MAP though does not appeal to me so much.
As for bugs, I've come across none that I recall. Other than the tempo sync on Imposcar3, maybe that's one exception if you can call that a bug.

Here is a quick demo of MAP with Bleass Spectral Resonator on it:
